Daily Reminder that you should use a full thumb-around grip for The Press® too.
If you think a thumbless grip is better, you're memeing yourself.
>The thumbless grip is never used when pressing, not because of the danger – which is obviously not there when the bar can be dropped to the floor. Rather, the thumbs-around grip permits the “squeeze” in the forearms that increases the tightness of the muscles, making the drive from the start position more efficient and increasing motor unit recruitment throughout the arms and upper body.
